Le barreau reste immobile pendant la première phase de répulsion électrodynamique. The bar remains stationary during the first phase of electrodynamic repulsion.
Seul, le bras de contact du pôle en défaut s'ouvre, les contacts des autres pôles restant fermés durant cette première phase Il est essentiel que la rotation du barreau pour la confirmation de l'ouverture du disjoncteur intervienne avant la retombée du bras de contact vers la position de fermeture Le défaut de coordination entre les deux phases est dû principalement au maintien du barreau en position de fermeture durant la première phase de répulsion et peut provoquer des battements des contacts et une usure prématurée du disjoncteur.

Le fonctionnement d'un pôle du disjoncteur 10 à répulsion électrodynamique est le suivant: En position de fermeture représentée sur la figure 1, le contact mobile 22 en fourche se trouve en appui stable contre les contacts fixes 24, 26 correspondants La réaction symétrique des deux brins 100, 102 du ressort 90 en spirale sur le cadre 93 du barreau 70 assure l'équilibrage de la pression de contact sur les deux bras 90 a, 90 b grâce à l'action de poussée répartie de la liaison élastique 94 ou palpeur sur l'âme 80 La figure 4 montre la force de pression P qui s'exerce sur le contact mobile 22 lorsque ce dernier se trouve dans une première position de repos La ligne d'action de la force P est sensiblement perpendiculaire à la liaison électrique 94 du ressort 90, et sollicite le contact mobile 22 dans The operation of a pole of the circuit breaker 10 with electrodynamic repulsion is as follows: In the closed position shown in FIG. 1, the movable contact 22 in the fork is in stable support against the corresponding fixed contacts 24, 26 The symmetrical reaction of the two strands 100, 102 of the spring 90 in a spiral on the frame 93 of the bar 70 ensures the balancing of the contact pressure on the two arms 90 a, 90 b thanks to the distributed thrust action of the elastic connection 94 or feeler on the core 80 FIG. 4 shows the pressure force P which is exerted on the movable contact 22 when the latter is in a first rest position The line of action of the force P is substantially perpendicular to the electrical connection 94 of the spring 90, and requests the movable contact 22 in
le sens inverse des aiguilles d'une montre pour exercer la pression de contact. counterclockwise to exert contact pressure.
La manette 62 du mécanisme 58 se trouve dans la position de fermeture, en butée contre l'extrémité gauche de la lumière 64 Le mécanisme 58 à ressort 72 est armé, et le déclencheur 44 est inactif Le point d'application 103 de la force P se trouve sur le bord de The handle 62 of the mechanism 58 is in the closed position, in abutment against the left end of the light 64 The mechanism 58 with spring 72 is armed, and the trigger 44 is inactive The point of application 103 of the force P lies on the edge of
l'âme 80.soul 80.
Sur la figure 7, l'apparition d'un courant de court-circuit dans le pôle provoque un effet de répulsion électrodynamique des contacts, avec un déplacement rapide du contact mobile 22, lequel pivote autour de son axe 84, dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre La répulsion électrodynamique assure une ouverture brusque des contacts du pôle en défaut, avant l'intervention mécanique du mécanisme 58 de commande Le ressort 72 et la genouillère 60 restent immobiles, ainsi que le barreau de commutation 70, dont la position correspond à celle de la figure 1 L'arc reste ancré entre le contact mobile 22 et la corne d'arc fixe 104,et In FIG. 7, the appearance of a short-circuit current in the pole causes an effect of electrodynamic repulsion of the contacts, with a rapid displacement of the movable contact 22, which pivots around its axis 84, in the direction of the needles of a watch Electrodynamic repulsion ensures abrupt opening of the contacts of the faulty pole, before the mechanical intervention of the control mechanism 58 The spring 72 and the toggle joint 60 remain stationary, as does the switching bar 70, the position of which corresponds to that of FIG. 1 The arc remains anchored between the movable contact 22 and the fixed arcing horn 104, and
est propulsé en direction des tôles de désionisation de la chambre d'extinction 74. is propelled towards the deionization plates of the extinguishing chamber 74.
En fin de course d'ouverture sur répulstion (figure 8), le contact mobile 22 est ouvert au maximum, et se trouve en butée contre la paroi de l'ampoule 16 L'arc est refroidi par les tôles de la chambre 74, et le déclencheur 44 commence à piloter la phase de déclenchement At the end of the opening repulsion stroke (FIG. 8), the movable contact 22 is opened to the maximum, and is in abutment against the wall of the bulb 16 The arc is cooled by the sheets of the chamber 74, and trigger 44 starts to pilot the trigger phase
du mécanisme 58 (voir flèches).of mechanism 58 (see arrows).
Après déclenchement du mécanisme 58 (non représenté sur les figures), le verrou 56 libère la genouillère 60 entraînant la détente du ressort 72, et la rotation du barreau 70 dans le After triggering of the mechanism 58 (not shown in the figures), the latch 56 releases the toggle joint 60 causing the spring 72 to relax, and the bar 70 to rotate in the
sens des aiguilles d'une montre, de manière à confirmer l'ouverture du contact mobile 22. clockwise, so as to confirm the opening of the movable contact 22.
Pendant les phases de répulsion électrodynamique représentées sur les figures 7 et 8, il est impératif que le contact mobile 22 ne se referme pas avant l'intervention du barreau 70 suite au déclenchement du mécanisme 58 Le retard de retombée du contact mobile 22 est obtenu grâce au déplacement du point d'application 103 de la force P qui s'exerce sur l'âme During the electrodynamic repulsion phases shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, it is imperative that the movable contact 22 does not close before the intervention of the bar 70 following the triggering of the mechanism 58 The fallout of the movable contact 22 is obtained by displacement of the point of application 103 of the force P exerted on the core
lors de la répulsion.during the repulsion.
Dans la position de répulsion de la figure 6, le glissement de la liaison élastique 94 vers l'intérieur des fentes d'équilibrage 96, 98 modifie l'emplacement du point d'application 103 de la force P exercée par le ressort 90 La ligne d'action de la force P passe au voisinage de l'axe 84 de pivotement du contact mobile 22, ce qui diminue notablement le couple de rappel vers la position de fermeture Cette diminution du couple de rappel permet de In the repulsion position of FIG. 6, the sliding of the elastic link 94 towards the inside of the balancing slots 96, 98 modifies the location of the point of application 103 of the force P exerted by the spring 90 The line of action of the force P passes in the vicinity of the axis 84 of pivoting of the movable contact 22, which significantly reduces the return torque towards the closed position This reduction in the return torque allows
retarder la retombée du contact mobile 22 avant l'intervention du barreau 70. delay the fallout of the movable contact 22 before the intervention of the bar 70.
Les fentes 96, 98 comportent avantageusement des surfaces d'accrochage conformées pour The slots 96, 98 advantageously comprise hooking surfaces shaped to
bloquer temporairement le contact mobile 22 dans la position de répulsion maximum. temporarily block the movable contact 22 in the maximum repulsion position.
La figure 9 montre une phase d'ouverture manuelle du disjoncteur 10 par l'actionnement de la manette 62 dans le sens de la flèche Le mécanisme 58 reste armé, et la rotation du barreau 70 provoque le déplacement du contact mobile 22 vers la position d'ouverture dès FIG. 9 shows a phase of manual opening of the circuit breaker 10 by actuation of the handle 62 in the direction of the arrow The mechanism 58 remains armed, and the rotation of the bar 70 causes the displacement of the movable contact 22 towards the position d opening
que la manette 62 a dépassé la position intermédiaire du point mort ouverture. that the lever 62 has exceeded the intermediate position of the opening dead center.
